You know, you may be on to something. "Great American" sounds a heck of a lot better as a railroad name than just "BNSF."
Why not BCNSFX ? Has all the letters of each, in the correct order, too - and the 1st 3 can be pronounced as "Be seein' " _ _ _ ? Need to finish that somehow . . .

Mr. Lyon: Calling the zoo number to speak directly to you. (Think about it)
Are you sure it won't be BNSFX? Much easier to paint. A blue goat. I rather like that!

Yea, I know...APRIL FOOLS!
In a previously unannounced move and a soon to be announced merger with CSX, BNSF Railway will change it's name and corporate identity into the new "Great American Railway" (reporting mark GARR). Along the with new name and corporate image, a merged BNSF and CSX GARR will adopt the paint and markings of the former Great Northern Railway. Great American Railway GARR locos will be painted in “big sky blue” with a large “Rocky” goat herald.
And CSX railfans will be disappointed that Rocky was chosen over Chessie as the new BNSF/CSX merger mascot and GARR railroad herald.
